HELP FOB COUNTRY EDITORS.
(Krom The Orcgonian.
One would think there was an old
country editor in the Jiostot't'ici! depart
ment, making lawn' and regulations, a
good fellow of the Tom Kicurdson or
der, who is bound to givo the boys a
boost und bring them into their reward.
Jle must be a man of experience with
the frniltieH of the dcliniiicnt sub
scriber, that terror of the editor and
despair of the editor's wife, well
most cases is the financial "man" uf
the firm. For o! and behold! comes
the ruling that papers, to get into tec
pound rate, must hereafter be paid for
by subscribers in advance, or at best
cannot run more than a yeur behind.
Well, why notf All the prosperous city
publications adopted the rule years ago,
and it should )u enforced by the coun
try weekly as a matter of plain busi
ness. If ever tho laborer is worthy of his
hire, it is the editor und publisher of
the local weekly, plugging and boosting
year in and out for hi homo town and
county, often worried into sleepless
nights by visions of bills due and pay
able and nothing en hand or in sight
to meet them, it is safe to venture
Haying there is not a country paper in
the land that has not, at this date, from
."i00 tu 10tl() on its books, owing by
"good fellows," most of whom are hon
est of purpose, yet careless or shiftless
about paying up. These uim "good
renews nave plenty of money on cir
cus day, and when they attend the
county fair or other public diversion
or when they think of it at all, say to
themselves they will pay somo day.
They meet the newspaper man with a
cordial shake of the hand and compli
ment him on the gooil work he is do
ing, but that is all, while he wonders
if the creator gave spine men a double
allowance of gall. I si mistaken fear he
hesitates to cut them off.
The day of deliverance is nt hand:

Tho railroad commissioners have been
at Toledo, Lincoln county, hearing evi
dence in the case of H. F. Jones vs.
The Corvallis & Kastern railroad, in
which that corporation is verv prop
erly charged with currying passengers
iluring the summer season on mixed
trains, not furnishing ample seating ca
pacity, of collecting high und unreason
able rates on freight and general dis
crimination against the public's wel-
nire, ny iieorge l- .Nevnis. manager,
wlio lias since left the employ of the
company.
J. K. I'. Wentherford was sworn to
try to ascertain wl wns the road, but
farther than that he is chief counsel,
vice president and a stockholder in the
company, he would not throw any light
oa the ownership.

The weekly apple report of W. Den
nis & Sons, of London, Bays:
"Our market is at the moment prac
tically bare of apples, ao far as recent
importations are concerned, but there
are still in the hands of dealers stocks,
not inconsiderable, which consist main
ty of inferior quality of fruit. Tho do-
niiiod is certainly much better at the
moment than at any time within the
past four weeks, and we cannot but
think that any shipments which may be
alloat will realize good values compared
with what has been obtainable during
the past few weeks.
There is a particular scarcitv of reallv
good fruit and there is no difficulty in
milking from Ills to ISh per barrel on
lianiwins or Greenings thut mien no of
iiur size ami clean, lint we have a great
deal of inferior quality on the market,
which is clogging it ,, much that it is
only something K,IIH t lut t stands out by
itself that commands attention.

WASHINGTON', Jan. 27. What
promises to be the government's great
est contest in its struggle for regulu
tion of interstate railroads wns begun
when the preliminary work was com
pleted for the long-threatened legal at
tuck upon the Harrimnu system.
Suit has been directed brought by the
attorney-general to dissolve the illegal
combination between the Union Pacific
and Southern Pacific and the San Pedro-Los
Augcles-Salt Lake road.
It was also ordered that the courts
declare illegal "the ownership by the
Union Pacific of the Oregon Short line,
of all stock held in the Santa Fe, the
Great Northern mid the Northern Pa
cific, all of said lines being competitors
of the Union Pacific," to use the lan
guage of the attorney-general.
Strikes at Monopoly.
The following statement was made:
"The proposed action not only strikes
at the Ilitrrimun system in the west, but
will attempt to dethrone the great
financiers and capitalists of the east
closely identified with llarriman in con
trol of his railroad manipulation, for
the attorney-general announces that in
addition to the railroad companies men
tioned, individuals will be made de
fendants, including: K. II. Hurriman,
the railroad king; Jacob H. Schiff, New
lork banker and capitalist; Schiff 'a as
sociato, Otto II. Kahn; James Ktillninn,
president of the National Citv bank
of New York, commonly known as the
Standard Oil banker; Henrv C. Frick
of Pittsburg, the coal and coke mag
nate, aad a prominent figure in the
